Emad El-Din Adib: Washington Cannot Open Hormuz Strait
Egyptian political thinker Emad El-Din Abdel Moneim Adiv considered that the United States faces significant constraints in any military confrontation with Iran. He emphasized that Washington is incapable of imposing control over the Strait of Hormuz or occupying the Iranian island of Qeshm, which is one of Iran's most important oil export centers. He pointed out that any American attempt to occupy the island could lead to a prolonged war of attrition, comparing it to a "new Vietnam." Adiv criticized the Trump administration, believing it failed to achieve its goals regarding Iran, and that Iran now exercises greater influence in the region—especially over the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for global oil transportation—amid rising tensions between Washington and Tehran.
